The equivalence of the electric and magnetic surface current approaches in microstrip antenna studies

Abstract: It is shown that the fields produced by the electric surface currents on the conducting patch of a microstrip antenna are equivalent to those produced by a magnetic surface current sheet bounding the patch in the substrate only when dyadic Green's functions for the two-layer stratified medium are used.

A simple stripline design for uneven power split

Abstract: A technique for the design of stripline or microstrip power dividers for unequal, but in-phase, power split is described. The output power ratio is determined by selecting the location of the input port in a manner analogous to the tap point for an electric power transformer. The technique yields a usable bandwidth of 7 to 8 percent and is attractive for tapered amplitude distribution networks for narrow band phased arrays.

Multiband microstrip antenna

Abstract: Compact antenna transmits and receives elliptically and circularly polarized radiation. Antenna consists of layers of elliptical disks separated by dielectric substrates. Each disk operates at frequency determined by its size and dielectric constant of substrate. Individual frequency bands can be made to overlap, to yield single broadband antenna. Standard microstrip techniques are used to build it.
